"I throw my hands up in the air sometimes, saying ayoo, gotta let
go, I wanna celebrate and live my life, saying ayoo, baby let's
go!" My alarm clock blared out through my room, making my eyes
pop open in surprise. I sat up and slammed my hand down over my
alarm clock to make it stop. I began to lie back down. Suddenly,
I remembered that Ben was going to knock for me today. I shot
back up immediately and ran over to my wardrobe.

I swung the doors open. I scanned my eyes over my clothes but I
wasn't sure what to wear. I walked over to the window and pushed
open the curtains. I slid the window open and grinned. The sun
beat down happily and there was a slight breeze in the air. I
breathed in deeply, feeling refreshed.

Knowing exactly what I was going to wear, I walked back over to
my wardrobe and grabbed my yellow sun dress with black roses on
it. I smiled to myself and walked through the hall to the
bathroom. I turned the water on in the shower and grabbed my
towel out of the cupboard. I put my towel on the end of the
shower and I slipped my Pj's off before stepping into the shower.
I let the warm water beat down onto my body. After I was
finished, I turned the water off, got out the shower and wrapped
myself up in my towel I walked over to the sink and brushed my
teeth. Afterwards, I dried myself and then I slipped on my dress.
Then, I wrapped my towel around my head. I picked up my Pj's and
started walking downstairs.

I walked through the family room, through the kitchen into the
laundry room. I put my Pj's into the laundry bag before walking
back out to the kitchen. Now, Dave was standing at the cooker
with a sauce pan.

"Good morning Lu," Dave said, turning around to face me.

"Morning," I smiled cheerfully.

"Could you wake the others up for me?" He asked.

"Sure," I nodded and went back upstairs.

I stopped at the first door on the left, Jeremy's Room. I opened
the door and slipped my head in. After my eyes had adjusted to
the darkness, I made my way over to the window and I pulled the
curtains open, letting the sun light flood the room. I heard a
groan come from the bed. I walked over to the bed and picked up a
pillow that was on the floor, I pulled the covers off the bed and
whacked the figure again and again with the pillow.

"Alright! Stop it already, I'll get up!" Jeremy growled. I
giggled to myself before walking back out the room.

Then, I walked into the room next door. Unlike Jeremy's room,
Jack, Jay and Phoebe's room was full of light. Jack was sitting
on the floor, leaning against the side of his bed whilst he was
playing on his game boy. Jay was sitting on the floor next to the
window playing with his toy cars. Phoebe was sitting on the floor
at the foot of her bed playing with her Barbie's.

"Whoa! You lot are more awake than Jeremy!" I joked and walked
over to Phoebe.

"Come on princess, what you gonna wear today?" I asked Phoebe,
"It's pretty hot today," I added. I walked over to Phoebe's red
wardrobe.

"That!" Phoebe pointed at a pink dress with butterflies on it. I
pulled it out and took Phoebe into the bathroom.

After washing her, I pulled her dress on her.

"I want a towel around my head as well!" Phoebe said and pointed
at the towel that was still wrapped around my head; I grinned and
grabbed her towel, wrapping it around her head. She giggled
before running back to their room to show Jack and Jay.

I followed her and then went to Jay. I picked him up and walked
over to his green wardrobe.

"What do you wanna wear today little man?" I asked him while
opening the doors.

"Army! Army!" Jay shouted. I pulled out his khaki shorts and
khaki tee. Then, I took him into the bathroom. After washing him,
I pulled his tee and shorts on him. After he was changed, he
opened the bathroom door and bolted back towards their room. I
giggled and followed him back to their room.

"Right, Jack, the others are changed, do you want me to help you
get changed as well?" I asked Jack teasingly as he continued to
stare at his game boy.

"No," He growled, annoyed that I interrupted his precious game.

"Alrighty then," I laughed before walking into my room.

I walked over to my desk and sat down. I looked at myself in the
mirror. I touched the part of my fringe which was hanging out
form my towel. It was still slightly damp. I opened my jewerly
box and put on my necklace which had black roses dangling from
it. I then grabbed my matching bracelet. Afterwards, I slipped on
my yellow rose ring. Then, I put on some mascara and eye liner.
Afterwards, I put on a little bit of lip gloss. Smiling at my
reflection, I got up and walked downstairs.

As I turned to walk towards the kitchen, I glanced at the clock
which read 11:40. I sighed to myself and got myself a glass of
water. After I was finished, I washed the glass. Once I'd put it
back, I walked back upstairs, noting that the clock now read
1:45. I grinned nervously. I strode up the stairs and to Jack,
Jay and Phoebe's room again.

"Hey guys, do you want some drinks?" I asked, poking my head
through the door.

"Yeah!" They all replied at the same time.

"Orange please!" Phoebe said.

"Same," Jack stated.

"Ohange!" Jay yelled, clapping his hands. I giggled and walked
back downstairs. The clock now said 11:49. Wow, talk about
pathetic, glancing at the clock every time I go past it. I walked
back into the kitchen and got their drinks. I also made them
cheese sandwiches and ham sandwiches. I placed them on a tray and
began the walk back to their room. The clock now read 11:55.

"Here you go guys!" I said and carefully placed the tray down on
the table. I glanced at their digital clock which now read 11:57.
I smiled nervously and walked into my room.

I pulled the towel off my head, allowing my hair to fall. I
grabbed a yellow rose hair clip and clipped it into my hair. I
smiled to myself and quietly squealed in joy. I walked back
downstairs and looked at the clock once again, 12:00. Inwardly, I
screamed and patted my dress down. I walked into the kitchen and
looked in them mirror. I grinned at my reflection and patted my
hair down. Suddenly, I heard the doorbell ring. I squealed again
and walked into the back garden to see Dave reading the newspaper
on one of the deckchairs.

"I'm going out now!" I stated and received an okay.

I walked over to the front door, slipped my flip flops on. I
opened the door to see Ben standing there wearing a white tee and
blue shorts on. I grinned and looked at the clock one last time,
12:01.

"Woah! You're one minute late!" I gasped dramatically.

"Oh my! Please don't cut my head off my lady!" Ben played along.

"Hmm, I guess I will let you off," I replied, "Who else would I
spend the day with?" I asked, smiling. I walked outside, closing
the door behind me. We walked over to the park.

"So, why don't we play 20 questions so we can get to know each
other better?" Ben asked as we sat down on the bench. I nodded my
head in response.

"It's fine," I giggled while shaking my mind, "Well, my dad left
us when I was 3 years old. Then my mum met Dave, my step dad who
you saw yesterday, when I was 7 years old. But, then she got
diagnosed with brain cancer when I was 9. The doctors all said
she would only have 8 months left to live. And a year after that,
she died."

"It's fine, really, I don't mind," I laughed at his expression
while shaking my head again, "So what are your parents like?"

"Wellllllll," He began, drawing out the 'L', "My mum's drunk
practically 24/7, my dads a twat who acts like I was never even
born and he shows clearly that my little sister is his favourite
and my mum expects me to make all her decisions for her since my
dad keeps threatening to chuck her out," He chuckled once he'd
finished, "So, siblings?"

"Wow, big family you have there," Ben chuckled, causing me to
giggle,"I only have a younger sister called Jenny who is 3 and my
older brother Jason who is 18, so are you popular or a loner?"

"I'm a loner with no friends," We both said at the same time
causing us both to laugh. Suddenly, Ben took my hand in his,

"Not anymore we aren't," He smiled and I grinned, looking down at
our hands.

"So, your first day at school here tomorrow, are you excited?" He
asked me with a grin on his face. I felt butterflies in my
stomach at the thought of going to a new school where I didn't
know anyone apart from Ben.

"Yeah," I said forcing a smile.

"You're nervous aren't you?" He chuckled, reading me like an open
book. I nodded shyly and received a comforting smile from Ben.

"It'll be alright," He said, "Do you want me to knock for you so
we could walk to school together?" I nodded, giving a sincere
smile now. Finally, at 6 o clock we decided it was time we both
had to get home. After saying goodbye, we walked our separate
ways home.
